Hi Doug- I believe you found some guidance from ICO development team on this topic.
I received the following feedback on this topic:
> We have directly worked with Doug few
> days back on the issue. We imported
> his toolkit in our environment and it
> was working fine as expected. There
> were some hardcoded values for region,
> zone, network etc.. in his toolkit.
> May be in the new environment the
> values dont match. Otherwise didnt see
> any issue
I hope you consider this query answered.
In the future a PMR would be more advantageous to quickly resolve this matter in full depth.

Scott, thanks for your help. The APAR doesn't apply to us because we're not using Windows. The crux of the problem is that I'm using JavaScript code to put the text of a Heat template into a HeatStackDeploymentInfo object. Something is going wrong there in terms of formatting so that the JavaScript engine fails when we try to deploy the template. I've tried formatting the template in YAML (that's what worked before the upgrade), in JSON, and I've built a JavaScript object and used JSON.stringify() to create a string. Nothing works.
Will go forward with support...let me know if anything I've said reminds you of an obvious solution to the problem :-)
Thanks again,

Hi Doug- I'm not sure if this helps or not, but the APAR ZZ00410 might be related:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1ZZ00410
I have not seen anybody else report this issue but that could also mean they found a way around it.
Generically speaking we are in this topic:
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SS4KMC_2.5.0/com.ibm.ico.doc_2.5/enablement/developanoperation.html
but I cannot comment as to specifically that method has changed or not.
Probably a PMR with support would be best to proceed.
